best small based ship/pilot

By Ihavebadluck, in X-Wing

just wondering what people think is the best small based ship and who they think is the best pilot considering cost and for the pilot what ship they are in.

oh forgot to mention when I say best pilot it doesnt necessarily have to be in the ship you consider best ship. best ship i mean overall not including specific pilots and pilot I mean the best pilot considering what ship they are in as well as simply skill and ability

just gonna put the number of people who said each thing cuz I can

best ship

y-wing 1

TIE interceptor 4

TIE phantom 4

a-wing 1

Y-wing, Dutch, but A-wing, Tycho is another close one.

Hard to vote against Baron Soontir Fel. He's very clutch.

Khyros' article about Tycho pretty much proved he can clutch better than Fel. :D

ya I kind of like soontir as best pilot cuz I love his ability and love the interceptor >.> interceptor is probably my favorite ship

Echo. <3

True, unless you like imps better.

Soontir

love imps :D I kind of like fel better just because unless im playing him wrong he can get 2 focus and an evade which is rather useful I find

Best pilot is Soontir Fel. Best ship...That's a hard one. My favorite is the TIE Interceptor, but I understand they have some weaknesses. I'll have to say TIE phantom, because they ruin me a lot, and they changed the meta single-handedly.

I'm gonna have to say Lt. Lorrir for being the protype Echo

Really hard pressed to think of anything in the game that is better for the points than Soontir Fel.

Best ship is kinda subjective based on your playstyle, but its hard to beat the firepower, agility, and speed of the interceptor.

If we're talking on a ship by ship basis, Kyle in the HWK.

Maarek Stele, hands-down.

Wedge in his X-wing. Hands down public enemy #1, for good reason too.

you also saying x-wing is best ship? or just talking pilot?

Best Rebel Pilot goes to: (small ship category)

Biggs Darklighter in the X-wing

5 waves of reinforcements and he is still the top picked X-wing pilot.

Best Imperial Pilot goes to: (small ship category)

"Whisper" in the Tie Phantom

Never has a pilot affected the meta so much even Imperial squadrons are afraid.

Best S&V Pilot goes to: (small ship category)

(To Be Announced)

Now, now, let's not be hasty. We need to consider Fel's Wrath as well in this conversation--perhaps those two need to battle it out for ultimate supremacy. You never know, they might both die on the same turn...courtesy of Fel's Wrath's OP ability, of course!

I really don't agree- his post showed that Tycho has more maneuverability options, but the game isn't only maneuverability. Fel consistently puts out a lot of damage, while Tycho frankly doesn't. Tycho is fun to play but Fel is actually good.

To answer the OP- best pilot is Darth Vader, and you can see that in the fact that he's still ok even flying a big pile of garbage.

Best ship so far is the YT-1300 by a substantial amount.

In terms of my personal favourites- the interceptor, and either Turr or Soontir as pilots.

Darth Vader. Advanced sucks, but Vader almost makes it playable his pilot skill ability is so good. Almost.

My man,

I'll put firespray down as the best ship, but RE: vader, there's no doubt. Double action at PS9? I'd say that's better than Fel's ability. - It's better to get 2 actions consistently while not stressing than getting 3 only when you stress yourself.

Vader in an interceptor should be 30 points.

Agreed, Vader is the absolute best pilot in the game. Sure, Wedge and Soontir are good, but an extra is clearly the superior ability. If only you could stick him in a Defender or an Interceptor...or a Phantom!

Rebels: Wedge Antilles

Imperials: Howlrunner
